Default powerplay 25 with one outboard

Hi, i own a 25 powerplay with twin 300x's, but one of them is out of order,so i can't run my boat, so i was wondering if i could put off one of the engine and continu to run on one engine
what do you think about it? will he sail good ?

A single 300 would work, what length the the mids? What setback, you will need to do some setup work, but should still get mid to high 60's with a single 300.

With the proper propeller you could run pretty much any motor it just wont be as fast. Just get a smaller pitch prop and center the engine and youll will be golden just running slower, I would hazard a guess top speed would be around 50-55mph.
You could put a 140hp outboard on there with a 17pitch prop and it would get on plane and work just fine but your top speed would be in the mid 30s,LOL..
